I was doing an online yoga class the other day, and the teacher said this - that “100% commitment creates freedom and 99% causes struggle” - and I suddenly had a revelation.
It’s true, when I struggle, my heart is not 100% in it! I still do it, but I suffer, with the negative thoughts in my head.
If you’ve committed to something - are you 100% committed?
I cannot lie; I'm struggling with doing the things that needed to be done. And I'm choosing to be okay with my struggles because it may sound dire; but I'm not going to die from them.
That's the irony.
It's a moment to moment, struggle and not struggle, some days it's a breeze. Some days it's hard.
On the hard days, I'll give up trying hard because she I try too hard, it invites strain and struggle.
I will choose to try easy and just be.
